Six Years Apart

"We have received a message from the hospitals we contacted, and I am sorry to inform you that they do not have a donor either," the doctor informed. "At this point, there is nothing more we can do."

I fell onto the seat. What do I do? Was this how I was going to lose my son? After battling and fighting this cancer for years, was I going to lose him now? I glanced at his two siblings sitting across from me, their eyes filled to the brim with tears too. What do I do?

I grabbed the doctor’s hand, tears gushing from my eyes. "Doctor, please do something. Please save my son," I begged. "Please save Levi; he is my all."

It had been six years since I left everything behind and entered this world. I left my love and the life I had built. I left everything just to keep my love safe, and since then, I've had to live with the burden and huge responsibility of taking care of our triplet kids. Levi, Luna, and Leah are all I have left from my love story with Magnus. I was forced to leave everything behind six years ago.

I was shattered when Levi was diagnosed with bone marrow cancer at just two years old. We had been going in and out of the hospital for the last three years, and I had taken up different jobs just to save up to find a donor for him. But it seemed like I would never be able to meet the requested amount.

Levi had been in bed for a few days and had been bleeding. He lost so much blood that his body’s blood percentage became dangerously low, and now he needs a blood transfusion.

“Mrs. Amelia, I’m sure you know I’ve done my best concerning this too," he said, holding me by my shoulder. "I have sent messages to different hospitals to ask if they could find a blood donor, but they can’t. The ones they had in their blood bank have been used for the explosion accident that happened yesterday," he explained.

I held his hand again, hoping against hope that there was still someone out there who would match Levi’s blood. Levi has a very unique blood group that only a few percent of people share.

“Please doctor, there might be something else to try. There must be a way out. Please save Levi."

He looked at me and shook his head. “I do understand what you’re going through right now, but there’s nothing more we can do. We have also tried our best to help you." He sighed. "We tried our best. As much as I don’t want to announce his Time of Death, if he doesn’t get a donor in the next 20 to 30 minutes, I’m afraid I’ll have to."

My hands fell from the doctor's hand. Time of Death? I collapsed onto the floor in a disheveled heap as my pain poured out in a flood of gut-wrenching tears. I covered my face with my shaky hands, my lips trembling as I cried. Was this how I was going to lose my son? Was this how I was going to lose Levi?

What do I do? Where do I go? Where do I turn? I was so confused. Why was heaven dealing with me this way? Six years ago, with so much pain and a heavy heart, I had to leave behind everything and everyone I cherished. I walked away from the life I wanted to live because that was the only option I had. I thought everything would be fine after settling down, but it seemed like it kept getting worse. How do I deal with Levi’s absence?

"Mom, what will happen to Levi?" Luna asked as she walked over to me. "What will happen to our brother?" She sniffled.

"Will he be okay? Will he get well soon and talk to us?" Leah asked, tears rolling down her cheeks.

Levi's condition had been critical for days, and the kids could see the severity of their brother's condition. I wished that what happened six years ago hadn't occurred. I wouldn't have had to leave the man I loved, forsake the life I wanted to live, and sacrifice my dreams for my kids' future.

I pulled them closer to me. "He will be fine, Levi will be fine," I murmured, my eyes shut as I whispered a silent prayer for Levi's recovery.

Even with the prayers, my fears and concerns lingered. Levi's life was in danger, and I felt helpless. My sense of powerlessness weighed heavily on me; I bit my lower lip to hold back my tears, not wanting to distress the kids, but it was a difficult task.

I left the kingdom six years ago, leaving behind the life I wanted and the man I loved. I went away to save Magnus, sacrificing everything due to numerous threats. I left the kingdom while pregnant with his children, believing I could live without him and care for the kids. But here I was, on the brink of losing one of the treasures I had left from the man I loved. I was about to lose my only son, and I felt utterly powerless.

I pulled back from Luna and Leah, forcing a smile. "You two should go sit in the waiting room. I'll join you there with your brother soon," I stated.

They both nodded and walked away, leaving me burdened with an overwhelming heartache. I dragged my feet to the ICU ward where Levi had been transferred.

Seeing my son connected to various machines, the beeping of his pulse echoing every few seconds, I fell to the floor once again, clutching my chest and crying out.

What do I do? I wanted to do whatever it took to help my son out of this condition, but I was lost. There was nothing I could do. My chest ached from pain, my eyes were heavy and sore from crying. I shook my head countless times, struggling to accept the harsh reality of the situation.

"Wipe your tears!"

I heard a familiar masculine voice speak to me. Slowly, I raised my head, and my mouth fell open in shock at the sight before me.

The man I had yearned for, the man for whom I had sacrificed everything, the man I loved and would always love—Magnus.

I shook my head, pinching myself repeatedly. It felt like a dream, impossible to believe. I never thought I would see him again.

Six years ago, I left the kingdom under a threat and warning, never to meet Magnus again or let him see our children, lest they be killed.

I stood up from the floor, struggling to believe that Magnus stood right in front of me. He extended his hand, offering a handkerchief. "Wondering if you've seen a ghost?" He chuckled, placing the handkerchief in my hand.

Confusion overwhelmed me. How did he get here? How did he find my location?

Moving closer, he held my hand and said, "Wipe your tears, because I am back. Back to repay every tear I shed in the last six years because of you, and I'll do it manifold. So, any tears you shed now will be because of me, and in my presence. Brace yourself for my wrath, Amelia Grayson!"

"What!" My jaw dropped.

Why would the man I left everything behind for, just to save his life, say this to me?
